About

REUNI

Read full description

REUNI is the UK's student ticket marketplace β€” a safe way for students to buy and sell tickets to university events, society socials, sports fixtures, and student club nights. Selling a spare ticket? Upload your ticket or paste your transfer link, set your price, and list it for other verified students at your university. Every listing is automatically checked before it goes live, so buyers know they're getting a real ticket. Looking for a ticket? Browse upcoming student events near you and buy with confidence. Every payment is held in escrow until the event has finished, so your money is protected from start to finish. If a ticket turns out to be invalid, you're refunded automatically. Built for student communities Follow other students at your university, get notified when friends list tickets, and connect your Snapchat, Instagram, or TikTok so people know who they're buying from. Fast, fee-free payouts Sellers get paid straight to their bank after each sale through Stripe-powered REUNI Express. No seller fees β€” keep 100% of your listing price. Plans change. Your ticket doesn't have to.
